Conflict between Multiplicity 4 Pro from Steam and Object Desktop subscription

from Stardock Forums

I have Multiplicity 4 Pro for a few months, bought on Steam, and it works just fine.

Today I purchased a subscription for Object Desktop (to use Groupy and Fences), and after installing the Object Desktop downloader, my Multiplicity 4 installation reverted to the non-Pro version.

I had to remove the downloader app, uninstall Multiplicity, purge it (with a batch script), and reinstall it fresh to make it work again.

Any tips to make my Object Desktop recognize the Pro version?

There is nothing in Object Desktop Manager, nor in the nature of OD itself, that would automatically 'switch' what version of MP you have installed - you would have had to use ODM or DL the version of MP that came with OD and installl that.  Dont do that, only ever inststall MP via Steam if that is where you have the Pro version.
